SAP and n8n teams can use this checklist together before a pilot and when deciding on a production rollout. Tick the items you have verified; ticks reset when the page reloads. Download the PDF to share or print it.

Installation and licensing

• Assess the MIT-licensed n8n node separately from the commercial SAP connector module.
• Check community-node installation requirements for the chosen n8n environment.
• Install the SAP-side module and verify service and user access.
• Separate the n8n plan, SAP module, installation, maintenance and any model usage in the proposal.
• Record that this community node and the managed n8n–SAP product path are different deployments.

Pilot

• Choose one permitted business task and test dataset.
• Keep credentials in secure connection configuration.
• Define user permissions, data scope and action boundaries.
• Test unauthorized access and SAP service errors.
• Check duplicate-operation behaviour when the workflow is repeated.
• Identify required business approvals and recovery ownership for writes.
• Verify version compatibility in the actual environment rather than assuming broad compatibility.

Operations

• Assign ownership of n8n and SAP module upgrades.
• Document monitoring, incident response and support scope.
• Record acceptance criteria and the production rollout decision.

Exclude real system names, credentials, tokens, customer data and confidential tool schemas.
